Why can't they just make it a phone?

It looks like a phone. It can use mobile data through sim card. It uses android.

What is going on here?

I don't want to carry two devices where both look like a phone.

They tried with the "Boox E43", they apparently just grabbed random IMEI numbers, so hopefully for their next try they'll actually get the right range https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2870190#p...
